LONG BARN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LONG BARN sales between January 1995 and October 2005 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the April 2001 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the October 2005 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might LONG BARN be worth now?

LONG BARN might now be worth an estimated £469,325.

This is based on house price inflation of 65.3%, between October 2005 and April 2026, for detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 65.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LONG BARN of £284,000 on 7th October 2005. For the value to have increased from £284,000 to £469,325 over the 21 years and six months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LONG BARN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Shropshire local authority area.
• The October 2005 sale price of £284,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LONG BARN has not materially changed since October 2005.
